Lol.. good point.
Well, I just sent this reply off to the editor. Hopefully, it'll get published!
This letter is in response to the letter by A.Gene Ellison in last Friday's
paper regarding the comic strip "Life in Hell".
Instead of changing the world to suit your view, why not just stop viewing
the things you don't like? I really enjoy the comic. Yet, you would deprive
me of my laughter because you were offended. I am offended by your letter.
Can I tell the Editor not to post your letters? I would never ask such a
thing, because I accept diversity.
In your letter, you said, "Students today are faced with far too many issues
and don't need comedy about hell to ease their worries." In fact, we do need
comedy to ease our worries. Comedy is a prerequisite to a healthy psyche. If
we can't laugh at the serious things in life, then we may find ourselves with
no coping mechanism for disaster.
In short, I recommend that you lighten up.
